That mistake was done at the beginning - the "clkin" is just useless
name. It cannot be "clkout" and it cannot be anything else than clk, so
it is 100% redundant.

But looking for pins brought second point - here you claim these are
mutually exclusive while datasheet suggests that both inputs can be
connected. Unless they come from the same source always?
